Wells has been an excellent starter so far and the bullpen throws up a big double middle finger right back at him.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Wells has been screwed by the offense 3 times, the bullpen once, and the defense once. Alot of this bullpen hate is completely misguided.

Look at it going forward. Do you think the offense can recover from this funk and put up respectable numbers?

Do you think the bullpen can pitch reliably down the stretch?

I say yes to the first one and a definitive no to the second. I have no faith in the bullpen right now and I know I'm not the only one. It needs to be fixed.

I think you definitively have no idea. As far as performances this year, the bullpen has shown improvements since the onset of the season, I know that much. The offense has sucked since day 1 and shows no signs of improvement. Look above, Wells should be 5-0, he's not and a majority of the reason he's not has nothing to do with the bullpen.
